Food For Thought


Christmas Day.  “My birthday,” says an entity calling itself Jesus (or ‘Yeshua’) through a channeler, as reprinted in the pages of the Golden Age of Gaia web site.  

Whether that was with proverbial tongue in proverbial cheek or not, my response: 

I don’t think so.(1)

There is too much evidence extant about the likes of a birth on December 25th having its roots in far antiquity, being a pagan pageant celebrating the rebirth of the Sun after its ‘disappearance’ at the Winter Solstice.  And as to other aspects of what we call the New Testament: Joseph Atwill in his remarkable job of research called ‘Caesar’s Messiah: The Roman Conspiracy to Invent Jesus’ has shown that that story was built on a theme called typology, whereby the central character’s early life was a typology of the story of Moses, and his follow-on public ministry was a ‘foretelling’ - in very precise ways - of the ‘later’ military campaign of Titus in Judea, to put down the Jewish Revolt against the hegemonic power of the Roman emperor.  For example, the forty days of Jesus’s stay in the wilderness being a typology of the forty years of the Israelites in the wilderness under Moses.(2)        

As Atwill claims, and makes an excellent case for: The (so-called) NewTestament was “a vanity piece,’ whereby the Flavian imperial household (in particular with a Jewish general-cum-governor-cum-historian named Josephus having insinuated himself into it, as an adopted member of the household, along with a number of his Jewish priestly-lineage friends; thereby their living ‘to fight another day’), of Vespasian the emperor and his sons, Titus (the depicted ’Son of Man’ avenger on the Jews, in his siege and sacking of Jerusalem and destruction of the Temple there, for their failing to bend the knee to the Roman emperor) and Domitian, sought to undercut the Jewish belief in a militaristic Messiah who would come and save them from their enemies, which was the hardcore reason for their constant rebellion.  So, with the Jewish god a threat to their power, they thereby attempted to replace it with a Roman god.(3)

Not to belabor that point here.  Let me move on to the gist of this particular blog.  Which is to say:

I know very little.  (Feeling, as I do, that I have been deliberately kept under wraps.  For a reason.  All of which will come clear, in due season.)  What do I believe

What makes sense to me is that there are ‘grades’ - densities; dimensions - not so much of education as of seasoning, and the gaining of higher and higher, er, ‘degrees’ of awareness, of consciousness.  That humans - Homo sapiens sapiens - enter the higher realms (above 3D) when they freely consent to progress, that is to say, when they freely turn over their ‘little wills’ to the higher One, of their Creator; of which they are an integral part.(4)

As for angels: I believe - I believe - that they, too, are given the opportunity to experience a realm of Duality; to further their progress.  And that we - our souls - were part of such a ‘choir,’ too.  That that is our basic essence. 

Two sources that I have found particularly valuable on all this sort of thing are the Law of One series, and ‘The Fall’ (‘You Were There - It’s Why You’re Here’) by Michel G. Reccia (part of what is called the Joseph Communications).

But don’t let me tell you what to read, or do, on your journey.  It’s all just

food for thought.


footnotes:

(1) And actually, the entity went on in all seriousness, about ‘his’ life as Jesus, and its being rather different from the account in what we know as the New Testament.  To all of which I say: Who knows.  But I have my doubts about this rendition.  And as to that:  
   To continue.   

(2) N.B. Who was there to record The Temptation?  Answer: Nobody.  Because it was simply a literary device, to parallel the temptation of the Israelites in their 40 years in the wilderness, being tempted to whore after false gods.
   Not that I believe in their ‘God’.  Jehovah seems all too ‘human’ to me, in his emotionalism, as depicted in the pages of the Jewish Bible, aka the Old Testament.  I believe, with the likes of eminent researcher Zechariah Sitchin, that he was a tribal god, one of the Anunnaki, ‘Those who from Heaven to Earth came’.  (See Sitchiin’s remarkable series of books called the Earth Chronicles for details.  Or at least the excellent summary of his work by his niece, Janet Sitchin, in her ‘The Anunnaki Chronicles: A Zecharia Sitchin Reader’.)

(3)  The Roman emperor accorded godlike status in the day; and Titus thereby being the Son of God, ‘prophesied’ in the “vanity piece” to bring down the Temple.  (None of the so-called gospels predating that historical event.  And members of the Flavian household being among the very first members of the new religion.  Along with the Jewish priestly-lineage males who were brought in to that safekeeping by Josephus, and became leaders in the new religion.  Including bishops, and even popes, as time went on.
   See, e.g.: ‘The Secret Society of Moses’ by Flavio Barbiero.)
  
(4) I have found that I have been drawn to engage in a somewhat long blessing of my daily food, and that part of it is the invocation: “May the vibratory rate of this food be such as to draw me closer to Thee; and in all things, let not my will but Thine be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven.”

   Makes sense to me.
